Coin Market Cap showing how shady they really are: they've decided to take a strong-arm approach against those who dare to stand up for accurate data representation.

Again, your inconsistencies with implementations and practice are hurting your data accuracy, period...and from the outcry of others on our previous post, it's clear it is widespread.

Take @ethereum and @PancakeSwap in the below chart, blue line is market cap. Their 1:1 chain migrations had minimal effect. Now, look at #Ergo in the beginning, clearly #CMC's method of data display here is showing something that is not.

Read about Ergo's early days here and EFYT: docs.ergoplatform.com/mining…

CMC argues that it was a 1:1 swap, however...the total supply was drastically different, and they are ignoring that.

Total Supply EFYT: 1,970,945 Erg: 97,739,924 The ratio here is almost 50:1

To anyone interested in accurate data, the chart should look similar to the blue market cap line in the picture below for Ergo.

• @coingecko's solution was to start from mainnet.

Solution: Fix the chart according to total supply ratio, or, start from mainnet and link to the EFYT chart in a note above the current chart.

Inaccurate data can have a massive effect on adoption and their "first look" of a project as well as devs and businesses looking to purchase CMC's data feeds. Let's get it fixed!

You’ve now made a statement to other projects who want accurate data on #CMC: “Don’t question us, or we will make it worse”. Your updated note on our chart is a clear sign you prefer “don’t you dare correct us” rather than have data that is represented with accuracy.

Your lack of understanding of total supply in relation to a 1:1 migration is downright worrisome.

Please reflect our data properly. To clear up twisting our words for their benefit and their unprofessionalism, here is the full support chain: checkvist.com/p/dxdsOg9cQr7f…

#cryptocurrency, @IOHK_Charles , @RichardMcCrackn , @cardano_whale , @SpectrumLabs_ , @nonkyc_exchange , @RosenBridge_erg we need your help to fight the bully. Please help us find a louder voice so that #CMC knows they can’t push around projects, even demanding money, as they see fit.
